The Seven Elements of Digital Storytelling



The Seven Elements of Digital Storytelling
The Center for Digital Storytelling has defined seven elements for creating effective and interesting multimedia stories. Constructing a story is not a simple process that follows a recipe or prescribed formula. These elements require consideration for every story and determining the balance each element occupies in the story can take a lot of thinking and re-thinking.

  2. Characters
  3. Sequence

Our Process

Create a digital story about your Digital Citizenship element or another different element. Use Chapter 7 in our text for prompts if you need help formulating an idea.

You may use GoAnimate. You can only create a story with ten lines of dialogue so be CONCISE!
